Rainbow Bottle, Pot-O-Gold luminary

Do you have a cupboard filled with empty glass jars to be recycled? You can convert them into a vibrant array of rainbow bottle luminary. For St. Patrick's Day, we gifted the rainbow bottles to CJ teachers with Shamrock stem planted in it. So here we go with the array!

We created four different pattern of rainbow bottles - Pot-o-Gold,Tissue paper strips wrapped,Horizontal,Vertical decoupaged rainbow bottles

We used masking technique for painting the rainbow colors on the bottles and so it's a Kid friendly, Fun Rainbow project

Measure the length of the bottle. Based on the length, cut rainbow color tissue paper strips. Apply glue to the length of the papers. Adhere smoothly to the bottle and wrap around in the order of rainbow. If using Mod podge apply the Mod podge to the bottle and gently wrap the tissue paper strips to the bottle.

The rainbow bottle can hold candy coins(Pot-o-Gold) or candy treats! Can be used as pencil holders or a pretty flower Vase. Also as decor for Rainbow themed party. Rainbows brighten my day, Ray of hope!

We enjoyed the illuminated view by adding tea lights inside the bottle.
